The Maryland Public Service Commission approved Pepco Maryland's new rates effective August 13, 2019.

On January 15, 2019, Pepco filed a request for an increase in base distribution revenues of $29.9 million (approximately a 7% increase in distribution revenues), which was reduced to approximately $27 million during the proceedings (Maryland Case No. 9602).

AOBA intervened in these proceedings and sponsored the testimony of an expert witness, Revilo Hill Associates, Inc.

On July 9, 2019, a Proposed Order of the Public Utility Law Judge (PULJ) authorized an increase in rates of $10.3 million for Pepco based on a return on equity (“ROE”) of 9.6%.

On August 12, 2019, the Maryland Public Service Commission affirmed the PULJ’s Proposed Order and new rates became effective August 13, 2019.
